Egyptian Mau Stars

This is a link to all the North American CFA Grand Champions from the 2009/2010 year. The kitten I bred is 3/4 down the page, GC Mautrix Altaira. I am repeating this breeding, and the X-rays to see if/how many kittens I am expecting is happening tomorrow. I am pretty excited. The kitten I kept back hasn't done as well as Altaira, and I am hoping for a really great show quality baby out of this new litter!

Wow - nice pictures of all of them! Still like the silvers best. But I'm curious as to why no Bronze Grands? Those are my 2nd fav of the 3 colors.

What is her status as in breed? Is she in the top 3 Maus?

She wouldn't be in the top 10 I doubt, she entered only enough shows to grand.

There really are only two catteries I know of that are breeding for bronzes. The public and the judges seem to prefer silvers, but smokes are really gaining in popularity. I have never seen a bronze in person, even at the national Mau show last year in Maryland.

Bronzes do look less flashy than the silvers and smokes, although I have heard they are really pretty in person.

That is a nice picture of her.
I love her colors.
Chanan takes great pictures.
I had him take Wrinkles pics and they came out great.
I hope your other Maus do well.
Evryone wants me to get a Mau or Oci instead of a sphynx.

I wouldn't really think it should matter what other people want you to get. You should have what you have a passion for.

YES!! Woohoo.. Need to come up with some good names that go with Azshara. Since I found out it's actually also a name used in a popular video game, maybe I should borrow names from that. The game is World of Warcraft Online. I can name them all after elves or something.
